  1. Japan pi$$ed excellence across all styles and genders
  2. Anyone else think Dake would have retired if he won Olympic gold?
  3. It is and I think the reality for most international wrestlers. His walk around was well above his college weight too. For some reason I thought he wrestled 157. But maybe I’m confusing him with JP O’Connor.
  4. Very successful Iranian cycle. Congrats. Great people at the wrestling level. Dedicated athletes and fans. Pleasure to watch
  5. There’s a plan. Let Carl, Carl jr, interchangeable brands, and a couple of other pretender contenders duke out the inevitable psu ncaa folkstyle championship. let everyone else prepare for Olympic glory.
  6. Not going to lie this sounds kinda good
  7. Masters thesis shall be written about your thread title. Religious texts shall stem from this legend centuries from now. Wars will be fought over disputed details. You will have divine status
  8. It’s basically a like button by default because the rest of them make no sense.lol bob specializes in trailer park sociology
  9. I would not be surprised to see taz go up to heavyweight.
  10. It sure does look like he’s taken on some of varner’s style
  11. It comes off as now warm up which is insane. The weights he’s moving is his warm up
  12. We don’t have to be the best. But would lIke to see more consistency with the occasional lights out tournament
  13. Geno Zare final was bananas plus I could keep watching Dake win like that in his medal match for another lifetime
  14. I lift for show muscles. Farm work is too hard
  15. Help me out here guys. I can count medals but I’m not at certain against expectations and prospects going forward.
  16. Another thing that’s happening is women’s wrestling is being built with the ideal structure for greater success at worlds. If this works, and they are gaining interest from what I read here, it’s going to be hard to look away from objective results
  17. How do the Russians prepare? Is their system centralized or regional/individual? I think we used to centralize training and preparation in Colorado Springs until private dollars flowed into the rtc (really college recruiting banners)
  18. Now it’s time for this thread. can changes be made, or has our golden era aged out? Time to make freestyle more professional and less dependent on college dollars? What does this look like? Where does the money come from? Or if we want to get serious about this, switch to both international styles and wrestle it at all levels.
  19. 2008 was awful. Ball grabs and folk style pretenders bent on mma dollars
  20. It was pretty good. “it’s time to let the fur fly” was my favorite of many different comments
  21. I love Burroughs said Dake uses science to keep himself going. lol thats called pseudoscience. And whatever works mentally for Dake is what’s driving him. and that’s quite effective for his age. Keep it going one or two more years. He may have to lose trials to retire
  22. Gable is running out of career options. Time to come home
  23. Just a few more old weirdos who cling to folk style will be dieing soon. This is inevitable. Women are focusing on freestyle and the results show.
  24. Twilight of the golden age is upon us. Maybe gable comes back and rekindles magic in the team? yianni to grow some triceps? Maybe brooks can grow into the style and dominate? Dake might make one or two more years of worlds. Snyder has another Olympic cycle in him.
